646: Chapter 642 Sima Hong Attacks!
646: Chapter 642 Sima Hong Attacks!
“Big brother, there are still two people in the back!”
A passenger had noticed Ye Tian and Bai Lan sitting at the back of the bus.
“Hmph!
Let’s go take a look!
I doubt they’d dare to oppose us brothers!”
Another passenger immediately said with disdain, and then the three of them stood up together and approached Ye Tian and Bai Lan.
“Hey!
Kid!
Did you hear everything we just said?”
The speaker was apparently the eldest of the three brothers.
“…”
Ye Tian slightly raised his head but said nothing.
Although these three had cultivated the force of nature, their power was not particularly impressive; Ye Tian felt no oppression from them.
“Our boss was talking to you!
How can you just ignore him!”
Another passenger said fiercely, his words ice cold, making Bai Lan unconsciously tighten her grip on Ye Tian’s arm.
The three in front of them didn’t look like ordinary people at all.
Ye Tian gently clenched his fists, unnoticed by the three passengers.
The eldest of the passengers had an arrogant look and said, “Even if you did hear, it doesn’t matter!
People like you are just ants compared to us, as different as heaven and earth!”
Once the boss had spoken, another passenger eagerly chimed in!
“That’s right!
You ordinary people depend on the whims of fate for everything, but we are different; we can live forever!”
The words of these three passengers sent chills down Bai Lan’s spine.
What were they talking about?
Eternal life?
Had she heard that right?
Could it be that they were gods??
“…”
Ye Tian was speechless.
These three might have cultivated the force of nature, but their cultivation wasn’t great, and their words and actions were extravagant and erratic.
This was likely the same in any ordinary person’s circle; in every field, there were always a few hopeless cases!
“Passengers!
Could you please not cause a disturbance on the bus?
If you want to act in a movie, please get off the bus to do it!
Otherwise, I’m going to have to ask you to leave!”
The bus driver, who was driving at the front, suddenly spoke up, having already pegged the three passengers as lunatics.
Their talk made no sense, speaking of eternal life, what a joke!
“Let’s go!”
Since the bus driver put it that way, the eldest of the three passengers took his two brothers back to their seats and sat down.
In fact, the trio were generally low-key, but an accidental killing of a wounded “Giant Ape King” had made them consume the Giant Ape King’s brain, greatly enhancing their powers, and so they were very excited and were letting their mouths run wild on the bus.
However, having overheard the trio’s conversation, the male and female passengers, along with the driver, didn’t appear to pose any threat to them.
Therefore, the eldest decided to let them off the hook.
After settling down, the three passengers stopped discussing the “Giant Ape King” and were very quiet for the rest of the trip…
Bai Lan also calmed down, snuggling closely to Ye Tian, knowing that once the bus entered Jiang City, Ye Tian would no longer be hers alone; he must return home to be with Yun Xinyan!
So, Bai Lan had to seize the moment!
“…”
Seeing Bai Lan cling tightly to him, Ye Tian didn’t mind, as after all, Bai Lan’s beauty and figure were top-notch, and holding her felt quite comfortable.
Waves of her body fragrance wafted into Ye Tian’s nostrils, refreshing his heart and mind!
The bus continued to drive for a while, and although the scenery outside was still rural fields and woods, they were very close to Jiang City’s urban district, with only two more stops before entering the city.
Just as Bai Lan was sighing, she suddenly heard a strange sound of a flute!
“Wu wu wu wu wu wu————”
The melody of the flute was sporadic, varying from fast to slow, soft to forceful, creating a sense of chaos and unrest.
“What is that sound?”
Bai Lan was surprised, but beside her, Ye Tian’s brow was already tightly furrowed.
Ye Tian, more than anyone, was familiar with this sound and thus, couldn’t afford to be negligent.
He slowly gathered his power inside, ready for any emergency!
As for the somewhat simpleminded bus driver, upon hearing the fluting, he couldn’t help but curse!
“Damn it!
Who is playing that flute?
Are they trying to make it impossible for others to drive?
Such a public nuisance, I’ll go complain to the Environmental Protection Agency about you!”
Of course, the ones most agitated by the sound weren’t Ye Tian, Bai Lan, or the driver, but the three passengers who had gotten on the bus later!
“Big brother, could it be people from the Sima Family are coming after us?”
“No, by the sound of the flute, it must still be far away!”
“But if we stay in the car, we might be too conspicuous.
It would be better to get off and hide in the woods!”
“That sounds good!”
The three passengers had decided, and one of them approached the bus driver and shouted, “Driver, stop the bus!”
But the bus driver seemed unaware of the danger and resolutely said, “Sir, we haven’t reached the station yet.
I can’t stop the bus.
It’s against the rules.
Otherwise, I’ll be penalized!”
“Penalize your grandmother!”
The driver’s words immediately infuriated the passenger.
It was a critical moment and they couldn’t afford to abide by the bus driver’s adherence to rules!
The passenger raised his palm high, containing a forceful inner strength…
“Stop the bus now or I’ll kill you!”
Just as the passenger was about to strike, the bus suddenly jolted.
He lost his balance and nearly fell.
The bus driver looked up at the roof, puzzled, “What’s going on?
Did something fall on the bus?”
As the driver was bewildered, everyone heard a “crash!” A large hole was torn open in the roof of the bus, and a man jumped down from above.
Seeing this, the bus driver finally stepped on the brakes.
The bus was damaged and could no longer continue on the road…
The three passengers who were about to flee were startled upon seeing the man who had jumped down.
“You…
You are Sima Hong…”
The leader among the three passengers said, trembling, no longer composed.
But the man who had jumped down merely gave a cold smile, glanced at the three passengers, and said coldly, “Ding Da, Ding Er, Ding San, you’ve got some nerve, daring to suck the brain marrow of my family’s ‘Great Ape King.’ This time, I’m going to take your brains as compensation!”
Sima Hong’s words sent a chill down the spines of the Ding brothers.
“What are you talking about!
Sima Hong, what proof do you have that it was us who killed the ‘Great Ape King’?
There are many unique individuals in Jiang City, not just us three brothers!”
Ding Da argued vehemently, certain that there were no witnesses when they killed the Great Ape King.
There was no way Sima Hong could have known!
But even though the Ding brothers denied it, Sima Hong wasn’t worried at all.
“You say you didn’t kill the Great Ape King?
But do you three fools realize that my Sima Family can identify the murderer based on the scent left on the Great Ape King’s body?
Apart from you three, no one else would have this specific scent!”
Sima Hong’s words made the brothers feel utterly hopeless.
All three had heard that the tactics of the Sima Family were boundless, that no one could escape their reach.
Nevertheless, they had never imagined that the family could identify them just from the scent left after consuming the brain marrow of the Great Ape King.
Since the evidence was conclusive, the brothers had no way to deny it…
“Oh my god!”
The bus driver was also dumbfounded.
His colleagues had told him that driving a bus through the outskirts of Jiang City late at night was unlucky, as one might encounter ghosts.
Given his typically carefree nature, he hadn’t minded, but today, he had indeed encountered ghosts!
The three passengers and the man who had come down from the roof looked like no easy opponents; a major battle was unavoidable.
At that moment, his own life seemed in peril…
“Ye Tian, what should we do?”
Bai Lan was also scared.
She hadn’t expected their trip to Lingyin Temple to encounter such deadly threats.
Although Ye Tian was very powerful, the few people before them seemed like experts.
Could Ye Tian protect her all by himself?
“Shh!
Just let them fight it out!”
Ye Tian whispered in Bai Lan’s ear.
Although he had recognized Sima Hong at a glance, Sima Hong didn’t seem to have noticed him.
Therefore, Ye Tian didn’t bother intervening.
He wanted to see who was more formidable, the Ding brothers or Sima Hong.
“Big brother, we can’t escape anyway!
Let’s fight him!”
“Right!
Sima Hong is just bullying us because of his family’s power.
But we three brothers are not afraid of him, are we?”
Ding Er and Ding San were quick-tempered and, seeing Sima Hong’s aggressively approach, were itching to fight.
After careful deliberation, Ding Da also stood tall and declared, “Sima Hong, don’t abuse your power just because you belong to the Sima Family.
We three brothers are not to be trifled with.
If you don’t leave now, be careful, we won’t be polite to you!”
Ding Da threatened, but Sima Hong didn’t take him seriously.
“Just you three trying to confront the Sima Family?
Let me show you how formidable the Sima Family is!”
Sima Hong shouted, and then as he turned his inner strength, a howling wind began to surround him!
“It’s a demon wind!
It’s a demon wind!”
The bus driver shouted, then hid under the bench, daring not to look anymore!
In an instant, a fierce wind blew, and the several-ton bus began to shake violently and nearly tipped over…
Before long, Sima Hong was engulfed by the fierce wind, which slowly began to weaken, evidently being absorbed by him.
After several seconds, the wind stopped, and at that moment, Sima Hong’s inner strength was immense, and the people around could feel an air of suffocating despair!
